I have a '96 Ford F-250 Diesel 7.3 Powerstroke. Will this Scangauge work on it?

I am not sure. I have a 05 6.0. I do not see why it wouldn't. It takes time to dial it in though.

According to the Scangauge website it will work with any car that has the OBDII connector. It also says that those connectors are on all "1996 and newer cars and light trucks". So it should work.

It might, all you really need is an obd II port it's pretty much plug an play

It did not in my truck, it plugged in and showed basic information, I didn't have any codes that I needed to check so I don't know about the accuracy there. It gave MPG information that I'd love to have, (my PS7.3 was reporting a bit north of 400MPG), and although I consistently get better than 18MPG, it's rare that it clears 22MPG and I double it could come anywhere near the number that the scangauge was reporting even if it was dropped from space and free falling at terminal velocity).

not sure, mine is an 03 F-250 and it worker perfectly, only a few seconds to program. It looked exactly like the ont that came with the truck, just not sure on the 95 350. If it looks like the one pictured I would assume it would, it looks exacatly like that.

It's an OBD2 scanner, should be compatible with all cars built since 1996. Once you get the code then just Google the error code to get the full details.

i would assune it would, i purchesed it to use on my 2000 gmc... if you are not familiar with using this type of scanner there is little instructions & no .pdf file either for a printed manual, so its learn by doing... there are shortcomings...

A quick, simple search on the Actron website revealed the (Super Classified) information about the scanner saying that "indeed this scanner works with ALL vehicles manufactured on or after 1996." Imagine that.

Yes ,Scanner will work on all OBD11 systems.about from 1994 on up.The scanner will provide a generic code which we see as a code starting with a p-(-----).All generic codes can be found on the internet.The scanner will only do engine management systems.The scanner for that year might show freeze frame data for codes storded,thanks Greg

It should work irs very universal, if not easy refund process...anyhow here's what I found in detail Compatible with OBDII and CAN vehicles 1996 and newer. Similar to high priced scan tools but half the price.

Yes, it will read codes from a check engine light on all vehicles with OBD II 16 pin connector, so nearly all vehicles 1996 and up

Yes it will. You may have to do a software update on the scanner for the newer cars and trucks. All you would have to do is connect the scanner to a computer got to the web site and download the new software. It's a great tool and worth every penny.

if your scanner has the port, then yes I would say it would. Check for the port first.

I've never tried but, I would say no, this scanner is for 1996 and newer vehicles
839998
Yes. It will read all engine functions and service codes as well as Temp, RPM and sensor readings

It should. It works on my 08 gas f250. Ford doesn't allow you to read all data anyway. But I am able to read about 30 data points and reset diag codes. My truck will freak out if you leave it plugged in all the time. But for use once in a while it is fine. (Another brand did the exact same thing, so I don't thinks its the elm)

I have a 1999 F3 50 with the 7.3 L turbo diesel. I followed the instructions and had nothing but problems it did not work for my vehicle it kept coming back with an error code of calibration not on file. I contacted superchips they sent me a custom download and that did not work either so

Danny, I am not sure as I am still getting used to the scanner myself. What I do understand is that almost all heavy trucks are still based around the OBDII and Can systems. This scanner is not as good as OEM program scanners and does not give you capabilities to test systems, it simply reads codes. I am not sure sometimes how to interpret them as I get SPX, and other codes that you need to have additional literature as to how to interpret. It will read ABS if you switch to the six pin protocol. The instructions that come with it are vague, and I am still researching OTC's claims that it will read heavy, medium and light and what additional cords and or liturature that will make this a useful tool. Good Luck.

The gauge is electronic and should work on any vehicle with a temperature sensor on the motor close to the intake, the power wires have to be hooked up properly but the temp sensing wire must go on the motor usually on the intake where coolant flows by it to get an accurate reading.
